Ice fishing tournament on private pond

Gerry Fournier is launching a benefit ice-fishing tournament in Harrisville Feb. 2. The event will be on a private pond on the Crystal Lake Golf Course.

Crystal Lake holds bass, pickerel and perch, says Ray. Opportunities to fish there are rare.

The entry fee is only $10 per person. Some of the money will go to a prize purse, but most of it will benefit Between The Cracks. The fund gives money to residents of Burrillville and Glocester who need financial help for whatever reason.

This winter, Ray expects an increase in calls from folks who need help paying high heating costs.

Crystal Lake Golf Course is on Rte. 102 in Harrisville. The Feb. 2 tournament is scheduled to run from 7 a.m. to 2 p.m. There is no pre-registration. Just show up to help our neighbors and enjoy a day of ice fishing on a private pond.
